About this fund
What you own
The S&P 500 index is the benchmark this fund aims to copy. By holding it, this fund gives you a stake in around 7 companies across United States in a single purchase.

Owning every holding keeps things transparent — what is in the index is what the fund actually owns. It can be a touch costlier to run for indexes with thousands of tiny positions, since the fund has to buy and maintain them all.

Cost
The yearly running cost of the fund, shown as a % of your money. Lower is cheaper.

It is skimmed quietly from inside the fund a little each day, so you never get a bill — but it drags on your return every year you hold. On a broad index ETF it is usually a small fraction of a percent; the gap between a cheap and a pricey fund looks tiny on day one but compounds over decades, which is why it is worth a glance.
